The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them attain their full potential,regardless of the way they measure success. I think that my biggest strength is my flexibility and willingness to always learn and try new things. This extends to my classroom as well, where I'm willing to, sometimes, follow the lead of the students…

I believe one of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student would be to support them throughout their schooling and to keep a professional yet casual relationship with them. A tutor/teacher not only just teaches them math and english but also observes their student to target their weaknesses and improve on them. I think that I am a kind…

I think patience, figuring out how the student learns, and how they’re currently viewing a problem are the most important tools. A combination of both showing them how to solve a problem while also challenging them to develop their critical thinking skills. I’m very patient and have experience with several different topics. I went through AP…

The most crucial quality of a tutor has to be the ability to not be afraid of the inquisitiveness of a student and handle each and every question with patience, to be able to empathize with the student in order to understand how you would want a person to respond to you if you were in the same situation. As a person who learns in and outside of…

In my opinion, the most important thing is to view them as a unique individual, that has valuable strengths and weaknesses, therefore needs to be cared for differently.

Inside BurwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily practised multiplication and fractions, working through long division strategies to boost confidence.

In Year 9, Ethan focused on solving quadratic equations by factorisation and simplifying expressions, as well as exploring graph transformations using visual aids.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia revised simultaneous equations and functions—solving systems both algebraically and graphically—to prepare for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on quadratic equations often omitted key steps in their written solutions—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors—making it harder to identify mistakes.

In a Year 8 class, one student avoided homework and relied heavily on guessing answers instead of attempting the calculations, especially during worded problems.

For a Year 4 lesson, another child struggled to focus and frequently left tasks incomplete when practicing multiplication tables.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for exams did not attempt assigned practice papers outside lessons, resulting in less familiarity with time-pressured questions.

Recent Achievements

One Burwood tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely on step-by-step guidance now arriving at sessions with her own attempted exam questions, only needing small hints to push through tricky parts—she's even begun correcting her own mistakes before asking for help.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who struggled to keep up with homework is now consistently completing tasks on time and presenting neater working out in maths, showing real ownership of her learning.

In a younger class, one child who often hesitated to start tasks has started counting by twos independently and no longer says "I don't know" right away when faced with new problems.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for your email. Andrew has settled nicely with Phal and is engaged and enjoying the experience. Phal has spent the last few weeks getting a hold on where Andrew is up to with his maths and I am sure it will continue to be rewarding for him.

Darius is fantastic. He is extremely dedicated and well mannered. He often stays more than 1 hour to make sure Harry understands everything they have covered. Harry has become enthusiastic toward maths and he can already see improvements. Thank you so much for referring Darius, he has been a life saver!

We are extremely happy with Wageesha and she is to be commended on the wonderful job she has done with my children. She is extremely conscientious and a positive role model for my children.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Burwood Library and Community Hub—or at your child's school (with permission), like Burwood Public School.
